There can be no discussion, don not pay mountain jews more than 250 dollars

>>18160858It's the old definition of sports watch. It's basically a leisure watch. Something you wear casually. In the old days, you didn't wear a dive watch if you weren't diving, or a chronograph if you weren't racing.

>>18160909Unironically,San Martin is a good budget brand,have a couple of SM watches and they look solid for its price. This 62MAS is even an improved watch compared to the original Seiko reissues, currently running at COSC level. Today is the first time I put it on a elastic NATO and feels good.

>>18160953I have the Willard homage,it is really good, probably the best cheap mehanical watch you can buy when its on sale. The lume is amazing,even last more than my Tudor's I would say,I have heard that Steeldice and Addiesdive have the better lumes on AliExpress,maybe it is true,at least is on par with my san martin 62mas,but better than my san martin railmaster homage lume which is rather underwhelming.

I hate japan and japanese people but I do appreciate that in their pornographic movies many pretty girls are made to drink piss and deepthroat penis. WHERE IS MY FUCKING WATCH TOJO? If I was to get a submariner off of chrono24 is 12K a good price and should I get a date or no date
>>1816098612K leaf dollars I should add, unworn/new with box and papers
>>18160791Why would I care what a woman thinks?
>>18160986Deep throat porn is probably easier in a country where the average male (and some of the women) has a 4 inch dick.
Why couldn't they just sign the fucking crown to make this watch perfect?
This is the only modern Rolex that I like.The OP36 is also nice. The green one especially.The modern Datejust would be highly improved if the lugs were brushed, just like the older models.The modern Submariner and GMT Master are too fat and gaudy.Everything else is meh at best. Yes even the Daytona.The worst modern Rolex is the Sky Dweller.I have spoken.
Should I get my gf's (future wife) dad a watch for his birthday? What model? He's a doctor.
>>18161012Depends. Are you richer than him? If yes, then yes. If no, then no.

R8, h8, appreci8
>>18160998Because that is the cope model anon.
>>18161012First of all you should never buy a watch as a gift. Secondly i would assume both of you are americans meaning he already owns every single watch in the world.
>>18161012Watches make poor gifts. What happens if the recipient doesn't like it? He'll feel obligated to wear it around you.t. got a fucking Panerai as a wedding gift.

>>18161053Nta but how is that watch related? What does his race have to do with his collection?Isn't this thread supposed to be about watches and didn't he just post watches? So why don't you ask questions about the watches?Racist ass mothafucka.
>>18161027>>18161025Is "watches are bad gifts" a common sentiment?
>>18161057Depends. Non rich normie outside the loop? Sure.Some richfaggot or a watch guy? Never buy them a watch.
>>18161057Its not a sentiment.
>>18161012You can buy him something with pulsometer,this one is about 800-900€. Not sure if there is some old pocket watch for doctors,would be something nice I guess,it would be ok even as trinket or collectable for him,not something to wear.

>>18161081No, there's a few Northern Europeans.
>>18161057Yes. Because you'd be buying a watch YOU think they like, not the watch THEY like. Watches are highly subjective, and you will most certainly miss. If you insist on buying someone a watch as a gift give them a budget and take them watch shopping.

Is Baltic becoming the next rolex? They're growing really fast and apparently already have a physical boutique.
>>18161021nice
>>18160791redpill me on bostok
>>18161021Best collection ITT unironically desu.
Speaking of Baltic, which way, white man?Same movement, Baltic is slightly more expensive, i think has deeper blue dial color, Heron has that caseback, hardened steel case, bracelet and slightly better water resistance, which is irrelevant but needs to be mentioned.
>>18161131Also Baltic is available here and now while Herons waiting list stretches into infinity.
>>18161120>>18161130ty
>>18160778How can I clean the dial? I think it’s dust? It’s even safe?
>>18161154Working on dials is very difficult and specialized and most people will tell you never touch a dial anyway.
>>18161169It’s le over then?
>>18161174Start believing in muh patina
>>18161169>>18161181That really isn't salvageable. A watchmaker would clean it to make sure there's no dirt particles flying around that could get caught in the works but it will always look water damaged.
>>18161169>and most people will tell you never touch a dial anyway.Can confirm, i asked a watchmaker if he could clean up some black spots on the chapter ring and he basically told me it's not worth it and it's better to just leave it as it is.
>>18161186>>18161191Doesn’t it depend of the nature of the spot? It could be dirt (removable)
>>18161042Very nice shitter (Your arm)I like the brand and it's designs but I can't stand the limited run of every release. Just let me buy it.
>>18161192It wasn't, picrel. I also asked him if he could scrape off the (unevenly applied) lume and reapply it and he just laughed at me and basically told me to stop being so autistic and just enjoy the watch as it is. I heeded his advice and have been enjoying the watch ever since, nobody will ever notice it unless i specifically point it out.
>>18161192The short answer is no. More often than not what looks like just some dirt is something going on under the surface of the dial that you can't easily reach or some kond of corrosion you're just going to spreat and make worse.Dials are very delicate and made with meticulous applications of different materials. It's not like a stainless steel case you can lightly polish and make good as new.
>Solar quartz>Radio controlled>38mm diameter, 6.9mm thickWhat's the catch?
>>18161252Oops, it's 9mm thick, but still. Does it only sync with a phone app or something?
>>18161256>Does it only sync with a phone app or something?The app is meant to simulate a tower for those who are out of reach for the signal.

>>18161414Good looking watch.Pull the trigger.
>>18161282and you'll scrape off layer after layer of dial stuff you've never seen in your life and ruin it forever, while not cleaning anything in the processprobably
>>18161425If it were thinner, I totally would.I'm just going to look away and not think about it.
I cleaned it a bit and it looks 10x better nowThanks for nothing retards

>>18161445>THAT looks 10x betterCringe.
>>18161445>cleans it>still looks like shitjust like giving a greek (turk) a bath, pointless and futile.
I've been interested in the PRX, so I finally tried two of them on today. I feel like the 40mm is slightly too big for my wrist, while the 35mm is slightly too small. Now I'm thinking about the Christopher Ward Twelve because it also has that seafoam green textured dial while being available in 36mm.As an aside, I was amused by the Tissot salesman mistaking my Seiko for a Gentleman.
>>18161454there's also a citizen in that style you might be interested in, don't know the ref or the size though
>>18161414buy it now it won't be around forever

ROLEX
>>18161600Rolex are SPORTS watches. They aren't mean to reflect like a mirror. They are the best steel watches built for a purpose.
>>18161601>how DARE YOU cherrypick a 15K watch and compare it to 200$ chinese shitters and DEMAND that it's on the same level????kek
>>18161603You buy a Rolex for the brand, poorfag.
>>18161574Personally I think Italian food is better, but I like both and Italian is at worst a lateral move. They're a lot of the same shit in different combinations, really.It's true about the liqour though. Almost everything has to be mixed to be drinkable. Limoncello is amazing though.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SWJOSWGwaGIRAAWWW LEEEXXX
>>18161599The Italian market is historically very important for Rolex. Italians bought A LOT of Submariner and Datejust between the 1960s and 1990s. Go to Milan or Rome and you'll notice every one is wearing vintage Rolexes there.
>>18161605Italian food is easier to make and has a more universal palate tbqh.
>>18161609Even if we're going into more exotic territory they both do octopus and all kinds of sea food.
>>18161609Bro even greek coffee is better. Ever tried Freddo Capuccino? No? Well you should. Before italians steal it AGAIN and claim it to be their own.
>>18161576>And StyleSPREZZATURAAAAA
>>18161614Italians fucking invented every drink everyone orders in cafes plus 12 more that people really sbould order more. Espresso with lemon? Espresso with ice cream? Fucking amazing.
Italy is the Rolex of countries. Only fuckers who want to impress vapid gold digging bitches care about it. They get beaten by a former commie shithole Slovenia (San Martin) in everything. Post your shoes and your watch.
>>18161614>freddo cappuccinoYou mean frappechino?
>>18161630No. I didn't stutter.
This kid was a dickhead before but now that he's talking about coffee it's beyond a shadow of a doubt. What a tasteless whoring lowlife.
>>18161598It cannot be regulated, has plastic parts, and is unrepairable.>b-b-but Tissot service is so cheap!!1They literally throw the movement in the trash and put a new one in there. There is no "service".Your movement is losing 10 seconds a day? Into the trash it goes.Then again there a people who claim this doesn't matter. Nobody needs their watch to be accurate anyway. Why not just throw things away instead of repairing them? Get with the times grandpa.
>>18161606It's weird to see Archie not being the biggest nut job in a group.Kinda feel bad for him that these douchebags are treating him like a zoo animal.
>>18161637>Kinda feel bad for him that these douchebags are treating him like a zoo animal.Why? That's what he essentially is.
>>18161614>take beautiful espresso>dilute it with a quart of cream and icePlease never talk about your weak ass coffee in this thread again.
>>18161639>beautiful espressoChill it with the jerking, Giulio, lmao.
>>18161634It can be regulated to some extent, it has a very basic inertia regulation system with screws on the spokes of the balance wheel. The beat error on the other hand cannot be regulated.The rest of the movement is identical to an ETA 2824 so if needed, you could likely swap the escapement for that of a 2824 if the silicon fork shits itself in 10 years.Full movement replacements aren't done with Powermatics, if needed the escapement is replaced. The Sistem 51 is the one that's fully replaced in case of any irregularity as it cannot be disassembled at all.
>>18161641Can you even open the caseback on that plastic garbage in order to replace shitstem 51? I thought when it brakes it's over.
>>18161643Probably depends on the exact model. If you're thinking of the bioceramic Five Fathoms, I would not trust it to survive an opening procedure.Then again, I don't trust it to handle a shock on its lugs, that thing feels like crap.
>>18161643>>18161645Yes, the Swatchpain's caseback can be removed. They didn't weld it shut. The movement would be replaced if it needs service. As an aside, why does the idea of the System 51 make people so angry? If you don't like it, don't buy it. Seems simple enough?
Okay, watches don't make good gifts. But what about pocket watches? There's no pressure to wear it or even carry it around.
>>18161650what about wall or desk clocks?
>>18161648>why does the idea of 400$ plastic watch with unservicable movenent make people so angry?Indeed why does it? The world may never know.
>>18161653I'm sorry you were forced to buy a watch. I can't imagine how painful that must have been.
>>18161604no, you buy a rolex because it's a pussy magnet, and you're a pussy
>>18161651>>18161650Tbqh a nice desk clock is probably the better gift.
>>18161641>identical to eta 2824so it grinds itself to a pile of shit from handwinding too? good to know
>>18161659Source on this wild claim?
>>18161650Why give someone something you know they're never going to use?Does a windsurfing boom make a good gift for people who don't windsurf?Gift giving is not hard. Identify what the person wants and doesn't have, not what you think they don't know they want or what you actually want.If you can't think of anything, you're probably not very good friends with that person or they already have everything they want, in which case they probably would rather have a nice dinner with friends than another useless trinket.
>>18161650The whole point of a gift is to make the person who receives happy. It's not about what YOU like, you autist.
>>18161659OK, I've been enjoying your bitterposting for a while now, but I'm curious as to what you think is a good watch. Post one please. (It doesn't even have to be a watch you own.)
>>18161660https://www.watchuseek.com/threads/eta-2824-2-sellita-hand-winding.5048209/first link I found on google, won't even bother skimming it>t. own 2834 and it's dogshit>>18161665>bitterpostingchoke on your shitmatic80, you retarded faggot

>>18161668If you hate watches so much, why are you here?
>>18161672>/g/ as it should have stayedAnyone claiming to have fond memories of the /g/ times wasn't there. It was just as shitty back then.
>>18161672Go back to your tea snowflake.
>>18161672>t. bitter hapa incel who doesn't own a Rolex
>>18161675other than ninefag, it was much better, and even that roodypoo had some insights
>>18161688Yeah, Tudorfag and Windy were based.
>>18161688Wtf is ninefag?
>>18161672kek
>>18161660He's thinking of the sellita movements. It's a known issue with sellita which are also based on ETA movements, people will tell you not to handwind sellitas
>>18161665>OK, I've been enjoying your bitterposting for a while now, but I'm curious as to what you think is a good watch. Post one please. (It doesn't even have to be a watch you own.)He would never do this because then he'd be on defense. He'd actually have to defend his choice instead of just being a snippy bitch about everything.
>>18161556>>18161629What's with all the sudden mentions of my country? Leave us out of this.
>>18161704Based big brain bittercel.
>>18161645>Five FathomsWhere did the other 45 go?
>>18161701I'm not here to spoon feed wt history to shitheads.
>>18161720Well he has a lot of time to think about how to be a jerk while staring at his empty watch box.
Truth is, Wanting quality for your money is a poor man trait.If you could afford a rolex, you wouldn't care either.
>>18161737same with wanting accurate time keeping
>>18161737That's true desu.
>>18161743Buying niggerbrands is ALSO a poor man trait.Thinking those niggerbrands are a flex is a black man trait.
>>18161746
>>18161746Spoken like some Aldi essentials wearing poorfag

>>18161252Much cleaner without the date window
>>18161756Still looks awful.
>>18161756It is. It always looks like it should be a kitchen clock, though.
>>18161758>>18161761It kinda gives me that "grandpa watch" vibe. I like it.
Sapphire >shatters>scratches are there for life>needs ar coating>heavyAcrylic>might crack, won't shatter>scratches can be easily polished out>no need for AR, unmatched clarity>light
>>18161764a lot of cope in these threads but this one takes the cake. Which 100$ seiko did you buy?
>>18161764>heavyI have to concede here, i bought a watch one time, didn't know it had sapphire crystal. Couldn't lift the damn thing off the ground. It weigh 44 thousand tons.
>>18161763Probably the best application if lume on a dress watch I've seen.
>>18161765All the patrician watches have acrylic crystals, anon. You know a sapphire crystal costs $10 or less, right?If you like dainty dress watches sapphire could make sense, but for a sportswatch, a tool watch, a man's man's watch, acrylic is the only choice.
>>18161773That anon is probably just too poor to take his watch for rebuffing every year or so. Let him cope with his sapphire shitter.
>>18161737Okay I know this thread is full of idiots but this HAS to be the single most idiotic thing I've ever read here.
>2024>still not having a master chronometer
>>18161778>Thinking that an Omegay or a Toopoor is a flexYou have beclowned yourself.
>>18161778Weird thing to feel joy over, but whatever floats your boat.
Things I couldn't give a shit about>muh in house movement>muh accuracy>muh water resistance>muh flex on poorfags>muh "X is better than Rolex" Only thing I care about:>A E S T H E T I CIf you're watch is ugly, your watch fucking sucks. Simple as.
>>18161788If you're ugly, it doesn't matter what watch you wear, what clothes you wear, or what car you drive.
>>18161789Ugly people are not allowed to wear pretty watches?
>>18161790They can wear what they want. Doesn't matter. They'll always be the dregs of society and will have to pay for any human interaction they experience, be it paying for a hooker or buying drinks for "friends" at the bar.
>>18161786I would buy Bond's seamaster if i was absurdly rich.
>>18161493He did correct himself, at least. I could see the resemblance too.>>18161522Really like that design. Would have become my top choice if it was an automatic.
>>18161779>>18161780>>18161786I'm sure you pay double at the grocery store too, just to flex.
>>18161798It has the same problem as all current gen Seamasters, way too thick.With the NTTD version, it's made worse because it's on a NATO, which only adds to the thickness. It also comes on that strange looking Ti mesh, but I don't think it looks very good.
Buy the black power watch.Hope you are not racist.
Would you pay $66,000 for this?
>>18161831Thickness is irrelevant, its not the kind of watch you wear with the suit. Same goes for the strap, NATO is the only choice.
>>18161798>absurdly richIt's like 8k. How poor are you?
>>18161600None of my watches look like that after I wear them for a year
>300NEW THREAD WHEN??????????
>>18161841>''i-i-it doesn't matter anyway if they're daily worn for a year!''aight the RolexCope is amazing, i'm having fun.
hydrophobic/lipophilic watch straps are bad mmkay https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=08RPo_SuHj4
>>18161839I only throw money away on something when it's 1% of 1% of my net worth, or 0.01%. That means I would need 80mill before throwing away 8k on something that doesn't matter.
